There are three main interfaces to Spotlight - the useful one and
the other two. ;-P
The only one that's all that useful is the one you get when hitting
Apple-F in a Finder window, which allows you to restrict searches by -
Name:Contains:
Last Modified:Within:Last Week
Kind:Others:Revolution Stack
etc.

Does anyone here know about a way to turn off all Spotlight
activity and replace it with the the Panther style search?
I really, really HATE Spotlight. I just want to search filenames,
not the content. In spotlight I get way more hits than I need. I
design all my filenames to tell me all I need to know.
I also hate the way it anticipates my typing, as it blocks any
other activity, and if you make a mistake, one is faced with the
dreaded spinning beachball until it is ready. Finally there are
hardly any adjustments in its panel to turn any of this behavior
off. This thing blows so many HUI guidlines it's not funny.
Is anyone else annoyed with this horrible 'feature' of an
otherwise great OS?
